Marco Rubio Heckled by Immigration Activists in Miami

At least a half-dozen immigration activists loudly interrupted a book promotion Friday by Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, who took the heckling in stride, wise-cracking: "I just hope they bought the book."

"You're a hypocrite," one activist yelled, while another gave the lawmaker an angry one-finger salute as they were hustled out by campus security, The Miami Herald reports.

"I'm the only one who gets heckled by both sides of the immigration debate," Rubio joked.

The interruption came as Rubio spoke before several hundred people at the downtown campus of Miami-Dade College as part of his nationwide tour to promote his book "American Dreams."
